Recanalization of occluded right innominate vein in presence of a persistent LeVeen shunt: A vascular access rescue case.

Vascular

December 2024

Division of Vascular and Endovascular Surgery, Department of Cardiac, Thoracic, Vascular Sciences and Public Health, University of Padua, Padova, Italy.

Background: Superior vena cava syndrome (SVCs) is a common complication in hemodialysis patients due to central vein occlusions, often caused by prior catheterizations. Management can be challenging.

Objective: To describe a successful endovascular approach to managing SVCs caused by right innominate vein (RIV) occlusion in a hemodialysis patient with a non-functional LeVeen shunt.

Article Synopsis
  • The rise of advanced microcatheters has improved the success rates of complex heart procedures, but their use can lead to significant complications.
  • A case study highlighted a serious incident where a Turnpike Spiral catheter tip fractured, causing a blockage in the right coronary artery despite its tortuous and calcified nature.
  • To resolve the blockage, a specialized technique called antegrade dissection and re-entry was used, successfully restoring blood flow and avoiding a heart attack by placing stents after navigating around the fractured tip.

Delayed cerebral vasospasm is a major complication following subarachnoid hemorrhage and a primary cause of delayed cerebral ischemia. While various preventive treatments exist, some patients still develop severe vasospasm, highlighting the need for better rescue therapies. This article explores endovascular treatment as a rescue option for vasospasm, focusing on the clinical characteristics and roles of intra-arterial vasodilator injection therapy and percutaneous transluminal angioplasty(PTA).

Background: The long-term impact of drug-coated balloon (DCB) angioplasty for the treatment of patients with de novo coronary artery lesions remains uncertain. We aimed to assess the non-inferiority of DCB angioplasty with rescue stenting to intended drug-eluting stent (DES) deployment for patients with de novo, non-complex coronary artery lesions.

Methods: REC-CAGEFREE I was an open-label, randomised, non-inferiority trial conducted at 43 sites in China.
